Abstract
An integrated study at Rulison Field has demonstrated the importance of fracture characterization in understanding reservoir productivity. Time-lapse (4D), Multi-component (9C) seismic data along with Vertical Seismic Profile (VSP), well logging, rock core, and formation outcrop data have been combined to understand the variable well productivity within the field. High productivity areas are identified, and are characterized by their low Vp/Vs ratio and high seismic anisotropy.
